I was in Joliet C.C. in 1991-92. I paroled in July 1992 and have never been back. Needless to say I am a success story when it comes to Rehabilitation. @37:00 minutes - we used that unidentified wall for playing Hand Ball. I used that exercise yard every day for a year and worked in the laundry room.
